Z’s Reviews > The Last Murder at the End of the World > Status Update

H finds a memory extractor and plans to use it on any good suspects (it’s very dangerous and has a high death rate)

Emory and Clara find some secret area and the code is written on Clara’s arm from the night before

Inside are dead humans being stored at cold temps to preserve, some experiment Neima was doing

At night the ppl do work around the island and the plan is they’ll build the new civilization then serve the humans

Ben was found having done advanced mathematical drawings in the dirt

Clara and Emory head to Adil’s cabin

Thea started to doubt her mentor Niema when she saw she wasn’t saving scientists or teachers but billionaires, autopsy shows she was bested to death and Thea’s missing fingernail is in her mouth

Samples prove that both Niema and Hui were attacked at the bird bath, Ben’s blood shows no abnormalities

Emory is on the case, heads to Cauldron Garden w Thea who tells her she’s not human and they are grown on trees, before the Damon Niema created these products to fight wars in human’s stead, the 149 humans left are sealed in capsules in Blackheath

Abi says the deadman’s switch also req the culprit doesn’t survive so Thea and H have to solve who is the murderer thus the switch req will be met and Abi can bring the barrier back up so they tell the two to speak w Emory

Emory is taking samples of soil/blood when they arrive, says the birdbath was moved 13 ft over to cover up the scene of a crime

Hephaestus says there’s a deadman’s switch that turns off the barrier if Niema’s heart stops in order to deter violence when first taking in refugees and looks like it’s down now so the fog will claim the island in 48 hrs

The deadman’s switch was turned off yrs ago so H thinks N reinstalled it last night thinking her life was in danger, he thinks once the villagers learned the truth of the island, Adil murdered her

Clara goes to her estranged mom Emory about missing Hui, tells her N was holding the box when she left last night

E says that N did an experiment last night (cuz lab equip is in diff places) then they woke up for a celebration then their memories were wiped on Niema’s orders which in turn killed the ppl they found since it’s dangerous, so whatever happened last night was dangerous enough to risk wiping memories

The official story is there was a fire, Niema woke 7 islanders to help and they all perished in it but Emory doesn’t agree since Niema has a wound, Abi basically tells Adil she’s the only one capable of figuring out the truth so Adil says well distract her or else we’re all gonna die

Emory notices the edge of the fog might be coming closer?

Next morning there’s a fire and Niema’s murdered body is discovered

Clara wakes up w 5 numbers on her wrist

7 casualties when the warehouse collapsed

The food storage was raided, there’s none left

Hui is missing and Abi says she’s disconnected from the system

Everyone’s memory was wiped by Abi since curfew, things are misplaced, Thea wakes w scratches

Thea hates Niema cuz she left her sister down in the Heathcliff lab but it’s really cuz it’s been 40 years and Niema hasn’t found a way back in the lab

She asks Niema why Hui looked terrified after the cauldron garden and Niema says shes going to tell the truth of the island

Abi keeps secrets from Niema tho she created it, in order to be impartial since Niema has lived w these islanders for 90 years now

Thea takes Hui and Clara to the Cauldron Garden where the scientists from the island get medicines and such, all flora and fauna were created by them, Thea goes to get the baby

The two get separated and Clara hears Hui scream but when Thea comes back w the boy Ben and Hui she blatantly lies that the scream wasn’t Hui

Hui, holding a box, is silent and scared since
